Funny animals and we together make amazing memories, pictures and videos. I visited a lot of “animal planets” but this was the besz because some animals I have never seen before.

Dubai Mall Aquarium & Underwater Zoo with Penguin Cove Tickets
An absolutely insane experience Quite spontaneously and more by chance, we ended up in the Dubai Mall at the aquarium and booked the big ticket. The organization was a bit chaotic at first. After that, it was a very unusual experience. Being in the middle of a shopping mall in a multi-storey aquarium. The “zoo” is very lovingly designed and - if you have enough time - well worth a visit. You discover many animals that are not found elsewhere. Probably even more exciting with children. Fish feeding and a short boat trip included.

Prezzi da rivedere Acquario bello, niente da dire. Alla cassa fanno di tutto per cercare di venderti pacchetti/esperienze a prezzi esagerati. Noi alla fine abbiamo optato per l’esperienza dei pinguini; risultato? 250€ circa in 3 - due adulti e un bambino di 3 anni- (e dai pinguini era vietato fare foto con il cellulare perché te le facevano loro alla modica cifra di 50€ a stampa). Tolto i prezzi esagerati l’esperienza è stata comunque molto bella e il personale gentile e disponibile

Dubai Mall Aquarium & Underwater Zoo with Penguin Cove Tickets
Great Shark Dive This review is meant for the shark dive experience. The shark dive experience includes complimentary tickets to both the tunnel and the zoo. While these attractions aren't particularly impressive on their own, and their standalone pricing seems high for what they offer, they do add value to the overall package. The highlight, of course, is the shark dive itself. The experience begins with a briefing where you're instructed not to blow bubbles if a shark is above you, not to touch the sharks, to stay calm and who to "sacrifice" if a shark gets hungry—naturally, it’s the slowest swimmer! After the briefing, you're equipped with scuba gear and enter the aquarium. The dive lasts about 30 minutes, during which you make a lap around the enclosure, stopping at around five points for photos. Note that you can't take photos yourself; instead, a cameraman is available for an additional fee. This makes sense, as it prevents any potential harm to marine life from waving a camera around. Inside the aquarium, you gain a new perspective on how small the tank actually is and how many animals are crowded into the space. At times, I hesitated to extend my legs for fear of accidentally hitting some marine life. After the dive, you're given admission tickets to the zoo and the tunnel. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, quite different from ocean diving. The animals here are accustomed to divers and come very close, making it a truly unique encounter.
